It was revenge for that wrathful Amayzee from Twilight Trail! Alright, Floor 99. Sadly I couldn't time to get a level up just before Bonetail. That's fine. Never once I had to use the Ultra Shrooms and Jammin' Jelly I brought. So I'm well stocked. Have a good badge setup, I hope. Alright, time to end this!

Acacia Sgt Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Ahahaha, I did it! Bonetail defeated! Phew. Now only the remake-only Superbosses are left to defeat. Hmm... well, definitely not tonight, at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice.😀 I never once completed the Po100T (in TTYD; SPM's Flipside yes, Flopside no), I only went down halfway for the Strange Sack and that was it. Child me was too intimidated by the prospect of Bonetail and the bad guys on the lower floors.😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Child me was too intimidated by the prospect of Bonetail and the bad guys on the lower floors.😅 I did it once, back in the NGC version. I would say I had a much easier run this time around. Though admittedly I was playing less blind. Like, I had 45 BP, so that allowed this Badge Setup: Lucky Day 2 Pretty Lucky 2 Power Plus 2 Power Plus P Piercing Blow 2 Flower Saver P I forgot what I used for the last BP. Anyway, that evasion stack on Mario pretty much ensured I could stay on the offensive almost all the time. Did lost a few of my partners, though, hahaha. Should've brought a Life Shroom or two with me, but ah well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eltosian Kadath Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 In a way it is a tragedy that 20021 has been delayed for an indefinite time, as things did end a little bit of a cliffhanger. Also much to my surprise the brilliant caper of Manny and Nick, with such highlights as the locomotive lateral, and the upcoming culmination of a multi-thousand year plan to even have a chance with a 5 mile desert run along the Mexico border in almost exactly 18 minute, with the impending tragedy of either one of the couple having to either abandon the game for good, or a roughly 1000 year wait before they can be reunited have gotten me more invested in the human characters than I expected from the series. Don't get me wrong the lovable protagonists of 17776 and 20020 are still my favorites, but the drama of Manny and Nick impresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty normal to see characters with trauma/sad baggage, and who witness tragedies like family/friends murdered and hometowns destroyed and then go emotionally downhill for a bit. -But for me, that's -thankfully- pure fantasy. What of someone who wasn't a tortured laboratory test subject and don't get backstabbed halfway into the plot by their adoptive fathers? Of someone who is simply, "intrinsically", pained with melancholy? Maybe such people exist. The gaming landscape is vast nowadays, what I've seen is limited, and even more so by my own disinclination for anything too dark/sad.😆 But I haven't seen them/wouldn't know. Feel like that's the case (though I'll admit the fact I'm not recalling is unfortunate), but the main issue for most games is that if you're not the protagonist in most genres you're unlikely to get much time dedicated to your issues and thus don't get the perspective to see someone in this state and explore that. 2 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Yet for whatever fighting she does, I wouldn't say Samus's journeys are akin to, I sincerely don't know 😅, some Western sci-fi dude clad in heavy armor with a laser assault rifle? It's like how people say Metroid Prime is a First-Person Adventure, not a First-Person Shooter. Yes Samus does end up powerful by her missions' ends, and she knows how to take down prey, sometimes being assigned to outright kill things -Metroid 2. But when I play a Metroid, I don't feel like I need to kill everything I see if they aren't unavoidable & aggressive. I could just be running and jumping and Morph Balling through the room looking for upgrades or to reach the next objective. ...Okay, maybe "Space Ninja" is the wrong phrase, since it can mean full-stealth all the time. "Space Assassin", is more denotatively lethal, but still not "obliterate everything in sight. That better? I see my own ideas on this are pretty dissimilar, at least on aggression. That's probably due to the game setting itself as a hostile world, with the fauna, at times flora and liquids in some holes causing damage and it's that hostility that is set for the player early. I tend to get myself damaged as I go, so the bit of "I should probably try and get healed" is there too. Also, I cut my sentence short there.

Lightcosmo Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 I was curious how FE would play out had death been like FFT in battle, where they stayed around for 3 "counts" of their turn, and staff units could revive them. Of course you would need to design that with a drawback, something like said characters cant move for the next turn or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you would need to design that with a drawback, something like said characters cant move for the next turn or two. There are quite a few weird design decisions you would have to make, especially with what happens to the dying body (or if they are revived immobile) and the weird way that would interplay with regard to choke-points and other defensive formations in FE. FFT generally has more traversable terrain, less populated maps, and higher ranged attack ranges which mitigate the weirdness that can occur by dying bodies taking up space, and if they don't take up space that begs the question of what happens when they are revived and the space they should appear on is occupied. Also adds the question of should this mechanic effect enemies as well, and if it does the extreme skewing it would give to the value of enemy healers. Depending on how you design it, it could have a lot of notable far spanning changes, and have a noticeable impact on what is preferable with map design as well.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dayni Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Farage showed up five hours late to the Commons? Pretty sure most of us wouldn't have a job after that. If he's starting like that, I can only assume it's going to be a shitshow. On top of everything else sure, but it's a possible salve to see him just be so shit at it that him getting in might backfire. 7 minutes ago, Eltosian Kadath said: Did you start with 17776, or jump straight into 20020, or simply look up a description of it?

(Maybe one square of move to turn to allow for manouvring around them and if opponents hit them on the ground they lose a count to discourage throwing a unit into dozens of enemies) 2 minutes ago, Eltosian Kadath said: There are quite a few weird design decisions you would have to make, especially with what happens to the dying body (or if they are revived immobile) and the weird way that would interplay with regard to choke-points and other defensive formations in FE.

Ignoring the enemy for a second, another point with FFT map design is that it's more vertical, which of course plays a lot into access to combat with those added ranges and player units having to account for that. As well as that, FFT doesn't do untraversable terrain so much, giving another problem to consider with FE's balance and how often those result in the chokepoints you mentioned.e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interdimensional Observer Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 (Unofficial) Doom ports are getting weird. --- I'm considering getting back into playing video games today. But I feel like I've cursed Etrian Odyssey Nexus now by it being the thing I was playing right before I went melancholic, despite wanting to get back to it (still I'm done with like only the first third of the game, my team never unleashed its full potential). I want to Switch instead, which HAS to mean XC3 at last. ...But I'm still afraid won't be in such a mood that it'll be free of being tainted by lingering melancholy. And Megaton Musashi is drawing me towards it, feeling like it might be shine brightly for me, even in my current (improving) state. Yet I'd be breaking my worthless word AGAIN on XC3.😑 -I never bought the Expansion Pass for XC3 actually. Wait two months so I can get some eShop cash to buy it and have any maingame bonuses it provides? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
